yes, Jesus, get out of the chair. He's a shy guy to be fair to him, but come on. I get the sense sometimes that he'd rather sit in his bedroom and sing, which is cool, but not if you want to make a living in music. But congrats to the boys.

He sits down because he plays acoustic guitar and not everyone wants to drill a hole in the body of a vintage instrument to insert a strap button. You can always run the strap to the headstock but that is pretty awkward. It also allows for easier finger-picking etc. Guess he cares that they sound good and that his guitar remains as is rather than look like a rocker.

.. finest in Philly. Stage area is like Mercury Lounge in size (slightly bigger), but with a bar and balcony. Great food and beers too. The area isn't sketchy either. I've been there tons of times and never felt like I was gonna get shot. Street parking is plentiful and it's right off an "el" stop (Girard and Frankford).
